Nonlinear Dynamics in the Binary DNA/RNA Coding Problem
M. Martinis
Abstract
The presence of low dimensional chaos in the protein secondary structures, using the binary coded α-helices and β-sheet motifs, has been investigated. In order to analyse symbolic DNA/RNA sequences the assignment, based on the purine/pyrimidine and strong/wea k H - bond classification sheme, of binary numbers to the nucleotides was made. We have found that this assignment leads to different averaged fractal dimensions for α-helices and β-sheets. When embedded in the two dimensional phase space the binary string structures show the attractor type behavior which depends on the value of the time lag parameter.
